At 50,000 miles my original rotors need changing and new pads. I take my car out to the track twice a year for track days, and I drive aggressively. I used HPS pads in the past. I looked up most of the info on stock-drilled-grooved rotors and many say just the stock ones are fine. So info on rotors and pads.

I've upgraded to ZL1 calipers but I'm using the factory pads and rotors and think the factory pads are hard to beat for HPDE, now if you look on corvetteforum.com you might be able to score some OEM pads from a C7 Stingray with extremely low miles relatively cheap.
